Dr. Powell's research for the past 30 years has emphasized how limiting resources affects animals and has examined how animals space themselves on a landscape due to the home ranges of other individuals and on the distributions of pertinent resources. His black bear field research results and his research approach have been widely applied and generalized to other forest animals and have led to diverse applications through state wildlife agencies, the USDA Forest Service, the US Fish & Wildlife Service, and the National Park Service In addition, Dr. Powell teaches Wildlife Management, Community Ecology and Advanced Topics in the Study of Mammals.
